AT&T Park
Attendance: None
San Francisco, CA (Sports Network) - Brandon Phillips went 2-for-4 and drew a bases loaded walk as part of a five-run ninth inning, as the Cincinnati Reds used five Giants errors to post a 10-5 win over San Francisco in the opener of a three-game set at AT&T Park.
Laynce Nix had a pinch-hit two-run single in the eighth inning and added a sacrifice fly in the ninth for Cincinnati, which has won two in a row after dropping the previous eight games. Alex Gonzalez and Wladimir Balentien each had two hits and an RBI in the win.
"I think it was a matter of focus and concentration there, and I think the off day helped us yesterday and coming into this cool air," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "It does a lot for you, and the guys were all commenting on what a great city this is to come to play."
Homer Bailey went six frames, giving up nine hits and five runs. David Weathers (3-3) picked up the win with an perfect eighth inning of relief.
Bengie Molina and Eugenio Velez each had a two-run homer for the Giants, who had a two-game winning streak snapped.
"We've done so well all year: the bullpen, defense, and it was an off night," said Giants manager Bruce Bochy. "We haven't had a night like this in quite awhile, and it's tough when you make some errors and walk guys, but they've been so good. We were just off tonight, and especially the last two innings."
Tim Lincecum, who was bidding for his 13th win of the season, did not factor in the decision after working seven effective innings. The 2008 National League Cy Young Award winner allowed three runs -- two earned -- on six hits, walked one and struck out seven.
With the game deadlocked at 5-5 in the top of the ninth and closer Brian Wilson (3-5) on the hill, pinch-hitter Drew Sutton got the inning started with a bunt single and took second on a sacrifice bunt by Willy Taveras. Wilson then walked Gonzalez, Joey Votto and Phillips in succession, eventually forcing in the go-ahead run to put Cincinnati ahead, 6-5. Wilson was then lifted for Brandon Medders, who didn't get any fielding support.
Back-to-back errors on catcher Molina and third baseman Pablo Sandoval, a wild pitch from Medders and Laynce Nix's sacrifice fly plated four more runs to stretch the visitors' advantage to 10-5.
In the home half, with Francisco Cordero on the mound, the Giants loaded the bases with one away. Cordero, though, got Molina to line out and Randy Winn to ground out to end the game.
Molina opened the scoring in the first inning with a two-run homer to left, giving San Francisco the quick lead. Balentien's RBI single in the top of the fourth got the Reds on the board.
Cincinnati then evened things at 2-2 in the top of the fifth. Taveras reached on a two-base throwing error by shortstop Edgar Renteria and crossed the plate on Gonzalez's single to left, all with two outs.
The Giants quickly went back in front in the home half on a two-run homer by Velez that made it just inside the right-field foul pole. Jonny Gomes' fielder's choice ground out in the sixth made it a 4-3 game, but San Francisco got the run back in the seventh on an RBI single from Sandoval.
In the eighth, the Reds loaded the bases off Jeremy Affeldt and Sergio Romo with one out. Wilson was then summoned from the Giants bullpen and served up a pinch-hit two-run single to Nix that tied the contest at 5-5.

Caves of Belize
Concierge.com's insider take:
Belize has an enviable endowment of navigable caves. Some of the best are just outside the capital city of Belmopan, along the aptly named Caves Branch River. Others include the so-called Actun Tunichil Muknal cave (a Mayan reliquary where you'll see pottery, skulls, and crystallized skeletons), and the caves at Jaguar Pawwhere a guided float through the darkness and silence is the inner tubeborne equivalent of taking tranquilizers. But ensure in advance that you're not visiting this last complex on a cruise-ship day, when not only the local caves but also the usually serene rain forest zip lines swarm with furloughed passengers.

Fight or flight for mid-level women in tech
ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange
The Anita Borg Institute recently released a study, which was co-authored with the Stanford University Clayman Institute for Gender Research, called Climbing the Technical Ladder: Obstacles and Solutions for Mid-Level women in Technology. The survey participants were 1,795 technical men and women at seven high-tech companies in the Silicon Valley region. Fifty-five percent of respondents were classified as mid-level, 19.9 percent were high level, and 24.6 percent were entry level.
At more than 80 pages, the report isn't a quick read, but findings and recommendations, graphs, and interviewee quotes throughout the pages help highlight major points.
Among other findings, the report says that women respond with "fight or flight" when they reach mid-level positions, the odds of being in a high-level position are 2.7 times greater for men than for women, women are more likely to perceive the workplace as competitive, mid-level women are more likely than men to believe that extended work days are required for success, and both mid-level men and women value teamwork as well as having an impact on their team, organization, and on technology users.
Because both mid-level men and women surveyed agree that mentoring is important for long-term career development – but not rewarded by high-tech companies – the report recommends that companies create a mentoring culture and add mentoring to company evaluation and promotion policies.
The report found that men and women were equally likely to see themselves as being analytical, risk-taking, and assertive, but men were significantly more likely to see themselves as innovative, entrepreneurial, and questioning, and women were more likely to see themselves as collaborative. Both men and women want to be doing innovative work and continuously learn, and survey respondents unanimously agreed that women must be assertive. The report says, "Female interviewees provided countless examples of fighting to overcome their own cultural background and/or preferred communication styles in order to 'fit in' with the high-tech culture." The report recommends that companies create awareness about the different communication styles of men and women.
When it comes to families, almost twice as many women said they delayed having children (or chose not to have them) in order to reach their career goals. The report says, "Men are almost four times more likely than women to report that their partner has primary responsibility for the household and childcare." It should come as no surprise then that women were more likely than men to rank flex time as an important benefit.
Both men and women were equally likely to hold advanced degrees, but women surveyed were less likely to have computer science degrees. The report says, "If high tech companies consider computer science and engineering degrees a prerequisite for advancement on the technical career ladder, our data suggest that mid-level technical women, who are more likely to have earned a non-technical degree, are at a clear disadvantage. ... High-tech companies need to examine their promotion criteria to include more pathways for advancement to the highest ranks."
Overall, I didn't find anything too shocking in the report when I compare it to my personal experience, particularly when it comes to family/work balance. The section on "perceptions of success," however, was eye opening. The report says that "classic hacker behavior" ranked as one of the lowest character attributes for success. Instead, survey respondents ranked seven other characteristics as most important: analytical, innovator, questioning, risk-taking, collaborative, entrepreneurial, and assertive.
How do these findings compare to your personal experiences?

McCloskey - Khan is beatable
Paul McCloskey insists he has seen flaws in Amir Khan and labelled the WBA champion "beatable" ahead of their clash later in the year.

Edward Denyer says...
How can anyone say that McCloskey is a better fighter then Maidana?? This is a routine defence for Khan which he will stroll through and pick up an easy win, probably a mid to late round KO. Fair play to Khan, after the Maidana fight he deserves a quick defence, then he needs to step up and fight Bradley preferably, or Alexander. If those two are not up for it, Juan Manuel Marquez, Andre Berto, Joshua Clotley, maybe even a Shane Moseley or Saul Avarez. He should be knocking on the doors of the best Lightweight and Welters, and then he can start thinking about chasing Pacqiauo and Mayweather. My opinion of Khan has improved greatly, but I still need convincing he can beat the classier opponents of the divisions.

Aidan O'connor says...
Khan has the advantages of training under freddie roach and sparring with pac-man. It is PR bull to even suggest however that the spars go 50/50 cos we all know pac-man would leave khan for dead in a fight. Where are they going to get a sparring partner for amir with paul's style though? NOWHERE!!!!! Freddie only has to ask Stevie Collins about an Irishmans pride and passion.... Wave bye-bye to that belt amir!!!

Steven Byrne says...
I actually fought Paul Mc Closkey twice as an amatuer and believe me, he is a hard man to lay a glove on. He was then and is now. He should not be underestimated. Lightning fast hand and reflexes to match. Slips and slides punches like you wouldnt believe. I wish him the best of luck in this fight. I think he has more than earned his shot at the big time and i along with the rest of Ireland will be shouting loud and proud for him on April 16th.
Posted 00:12 8th February 2011
James Blackmore says...
Khan should win this fight pretty easily if he wants to fight bradley next, Maidana hits harder than mccloskey so khan will take his punches and out box him, mccloskey is banging on about not being a big puncher well in the ring that doesnt mean anything as it doesnt matter who's stronger it matters who's smarter. im an ameuter and have won more fights by being smarter and using my boxing skills than trying to KO with every punchi throw. anyway Khan has the sub to power which is acuracy and i think he will TKO Mccloskey, he's a good fighter but khan is the better boxer by a mile, also mccloskey says maidana didnt get hurt apart from the body shot, well maidana has never been stopped and would take Mccloskey's punches all day.

Chris Packet says...
@Jamshed Ali Are you having a laugh or is your judgement being clouded by blatant favouritism? McCloskey is ranked #5 in the world by the WBA and Khan is ranked #2
Posted 21:48 7th February 2011
Mo Khan says...
I think anyone thinks this European Champ can beat Khan then they need to get checked out by a doctor!! Maidana is by far the hardest puncher in the division and he did catch Khan but what did that do for him?? nothing did he win?? no he didnt. The main point that seperates Khan from any fighter in the light - Welterweight division is his speed and tactics. Let me remind all of you that Khan has the best coach and team in the world. This McCloskey chap isnt even good enough to be Khans sparring partner! Pacman is the best pound for pound fighter and he is Khans sparring partner ahead of fights. Khan has fought the best fighters out there and one of them being Barrera who beat Nasim Hammed! This fight is in the bag for Khan and will be a quick and easy night.

John Findlay says...
i have bought every Amir Khan ppv and am a huge fan of his, but this is a step backwards and i will not be buying this fight. I hope sky have not promised too much cash as i dont think i will be the only one not paying for this
Posted 20:22 7th February 2011
Saf Carlos says...
i dont understand why khan is looking for a fight with mayweather?? Mayweather is another class also he is on the brink of retirement maybe within 2years.. Jus Like khan defeated Barrera does he wana do the same thing with floyd in a year or two time to fight him.. Why doesn't khan fight Timothy Bradley, junior witter, and kell brook?? And then he can say he has beaten the best and then can challenge mayweather or even pacquio... Maybe wen he is retiring too!! Amir khan us good and can get better but he has to fight these fighters to claim to be the king!
Posted 19:09 7th February 2011
Mr Ali says...
I'm sorry but this fight is not really good on the progress report for Amir Khan he will not gain anything from this. It seems this fight is just to add another tick next to the WIN column and also to get a fight in the UK. The prescott fight would still have been worthy so he can iron out the lips of the critics who love to hate. Khan will deal with McCloskey in clinical fashion, McCloskey is a good fighter but not world class and not in the same league as Khan. Steven Boyle is either related to McCloskey or knows nothing about boxing. Khan needs to get on a flight to the US for the better fights. Witter needs to move into a old peoples home as he is looking for a cheque with his name on it...He can get a cheque but it will have to be from DWP. Khan will look back and think why did I take this fight....
Posted 19:09 7th February 2011
Leonard Harding says...
Can can't punch? Is he for real how about the fact that Maidana has a solid chin to go with his big punch. And as far as I can recall from the fights I've seen McCloskey isn't exactly a banger. He is a good boxer that can be tricky and awkward but Khan is way faster, he is extremely accurate and his conditioning and boxing under Roach has seen him put behind him the prescott defeat. Instead of being congratulated for getting through a difficult 10th round against Maidana and staying upright people still want to diss Khan. How many fighters in that division would have stayed upright under that barrage from Maidana? McCloskey certainly wouldn't have and I would like to see if he would have stood and traded with Maidana at times like Khan did or run like he accused Khan of in that 10th round. For me a convincing Khan victory. It may be tricky for a few rounds but he hasn't mixed in world class and hasn't met anyone of Khan's calibre and that's not being disrespectful to his past opponents.

Billy Killen says...
Jamshed Ali are you the one having a laugh ? what nonsense are u talking about saying the Paul is only in it for the money, he simply negotiated a deal that was right for him, Shah Khan made an offer that was desribed as "derisory" by Barry Hearn, Khan thought that he was just going to come over a buy a fight for half nothing, i genuinely feel they have underestimated Paul McCloskey and also have disrespected him, you also state that he is "only" european champ, this isnt anything to do with his boxing ability but merely to do with his marketability, world champs dont wana fight him because he doesnt bring any pay perview credentials and america doesnt know him so they wont take a chance in risking everything on him, Mccloskey will be different to anything Khan has fought before hes southpaw, really unorthadox, great reflexes and can bang aswell, im sure roach will have Khan well schooled about going to war with mcloskey because if he does he will lose his title, Khan will box on the backfoot all night, use his effective jab and win on points however i would love nothing more that to see pauls arm raised at the end and little feather fists khan standing in disbelief, a few years back frank warren promoted a show and khan was the main event with mccloskey on the undercard, john breen said to frank warren lets get Khan and McCloskey in the ring together and Warren said no chance, maybe in a few years, breen asked why and warren said because McCloskey wins. Never write off paul mccloskey and there will be some hairy moments for team Khan come april 16th, if he sticks to the gameplan khan will win easily and if he doesnt. .....Well, we shall just have to wait and see.

Paul Hill says...
lol i dont know what paul mccloskey thinks , but paul himself has not faced a world class opponent. he simply has not a chance in this fight , really because of his boxing style , he might be able to see khans first punch comin but he wont see the 2nd , 3rd 4th and 5th following , mcloskeys defense is terrible any fighter with have decent speed will get past his low hands and land at will , what i find interestin is his comments about miadana , miadana is one if not the hardest hitter in boxing today , and there is no1 and i mean no1 champin at the bit to get into the ring with miadana , i couldnt see mccloskey takin on that fight in his lifetime , khan came through it better than anyone who fought miadana hand , how many clean punches and still could not knock amir down , mcloskey sees this as his payday and thats it , if he so confident he should put the european belt on the line aswell, not to say for amir to keep it but to relinguish it straight away. khan to win by ko in the 5th EASY PEASY. mccloskey will fall like bernard dunne
Posted 17:14 7th February 2011
Mike Aspden says...
I'm no fan of khans and mccloskey is right to say he is beatable, but for steven boyle to say that mccloskey is a better boxer than Maidina is madness. Maidinas is ranked number five in the world at this weight, he's beaten the likes of victor ordiz and hes a heavy hitter,I'm not trying to put Mccloskey down but hes not in the same league as khan, its a tune up fight for a unification bout with Bradley, nothing more. He's got nothing to worry khan, if it last more than three rounds I would be shocked. And as for not by passing him because he's European champ? When did that mean you got a shot at a world title, he's not ranked in the top ten, there is far better candidates for the title shot.
Posted 17:05 7th February 2011
Matty Hill says...
What a waste of time this fight will be...khan will floor this guy in 2-3 rounds or maybe 1 if he opens up. (which i don't think he will after prescott). Just man up n fight the best amir, after mayweather and pacman and fight the cotto's, marquez, judah, margarito's of the world. Then maybe, just maybe, mayweather might give you a boxing lesson....
Posted 16:36 7th February 2011
John F says...
Jamshed course he knows who he is...and off course khan is beatable. We'll see whos the girl on the 16th of April. I can safely say he's in it for more than the money...nothing an Irishman can be more proud of than saying they beat the head of an Englishman!
Posted 16:14 7th February 2011
Steven Boyle says...
Should be a good fight, especially for the fans, come on Paul, McCloskey's a better boxer than Maidana is and a lot faster and more tricky, if he can use his southpaw style to good effect he could pull it off, he's certainly right, Khan's beatable, he's been iced in 60 seconds and wobbled big time in his last fight allbeit by a quality puncher
Posted 14:26 7th February 2011
Jamshed Ali says...
is this guy having a laugh. does he even know who amir khan is. you're only european champion stop acting like a girl and step into the world champion arena like a man. he's only in it for the money but it's gonna cost you an arm and a leg to sort your face out after the fight
Posted 12:13 7th February 2011
Adrian Mcgurk says...
at last Khans camp have come to their sences and made the 3rd and acceptable offer to make this fight happen...after all McCloskey is European champ so Khan couldnt by pass McCloskey so its fantastic for all the fans in britain and Ireland that this thriller of a fight is going to happen...Khan is very good and has come along way since moving to the wild card gym under the expertise of Freddy Roache but lets see how he will cope with the style of McCloskey....cant wait....

What defines a character? It's the kind of question we tend to ask more with novels and movies than games – but when it comes to BioShock, it's a valid query. We've got two exclusive videos that dig into the evolution of character in BioShock Infinite.
We recently had an opportunity to chat with actors Troy Baker (Booker DeWitt) and Courtnee Draper (Elizabeth) about their characters and how they built the roles they're playing. What's most interesting: How they've worked together, along with Irrational Games creative director Ken Levine, to craft their evolving personas. Watch the video for all kinds of nifty insights.
And speaking of Ken Levine, we chatted with him as well. Fascinating stuff, especially how Infinite defies Levine's previous approach to the performances in his games. Check it out.
So, whaddya think? Are you as excited as we are for Infinite? And do you agree with us when we say that Troy Baker is poised to be the next Nolan North? (Which we mean in the best way possible – Baker's got some serious vocal chops, and we'd love to hear him in even more major roles.)

I love this pencil for...
Verified Purchase
I love this pencil for what it is, though I don't end up using it very much. The
.2mm lead is super fine -- very nice for extra-fine detail work. The lead
doesn't break as much as you might expect because of the sliding sleeve -- a
wonderful mechanism that's also available on the my favorite pencil, the Pentel
PS315. You just advance the lead once and don't let it stick out from the sleeve
at all, and the sleeve will support the full length of the lead. The sliding
sleeve also makes it so you don't have to advance the lead as often as with a
fixed sleeve.
The only major drawback to this pencil (for me) is that on regular drawing paper (for instance in a sketchbook) it can snag on the uneven surface. I plan to try it on smoother paper, perhaps inkjet printer paper. I'm hoping that will make the pencil a little more usable. Now if Pentel would only reintroduce their .3mm sliding sleeve pencil, the PS523, my collection would be complete. |

Verified Purchase
I understand people's objection to the short length of the refills for this
eraser, but I don't know of any other eraser (other than perhaps electric ones)
with the precision of this one. As an animator I need that precision all the
time -- for cleaning up lines or just erasing exactly the part of the line that
I want to erase. Tiny is awesome!
Speaking of which, this is a great eraser to use with the Pentel PG-2 pencil (Which uses super-tiny 0.2mm lead). 7 people found this helpful

Up to 45% off Dining Room Furniture* | Up to 65% off Jewelry & Watches* | Up to 70% off Select Area Rugs* | Up to 25% off Select Bedroom Furniture* |
I bought this table because I already had (for the past 4 years) an original set: table, four chairs and bench, but wanted an extra table. My set has been kept uncovered outside and still looks great!
This product arrives with no directions on how to put it together. The black paint on the legs was scraped off in several places when I took it out of the box. The metal slats on the table top are a bit too pliable and unsturdy, which contributes to an uneven rather than a flat surface. Not a very stable, even surface for eating, which is why I bought the table.
The table is attractive and is made out of sturdy material, HOWEVER, there is no "folding" mechanism here as indicated in the description. When you read "folds away for easy storage", one typically thinks t you can lift a certain lever/push a button, apply pressure somewhere, and the table collapses into itself, like an ironing board. This is NOT the case here. Folding here means that you have to dissemble the table altogether if you want to store it, which isn?t the end of the world, but I probably would not have bought it If I knew this to be the case. Looks good and is solid, just annoyed at overstock for improper advertising. Too much of a hassle to return so I will probably just keep it.
Fairly easy to put together. Looked exactly like I had expected.
Great table for a great price and easy to assemble
I wanted square, high tables to complete my patio furnishings. Square to make it easier to play cards and games, separately, then be able to push them together to eat on or serve from.They could have been two inches taller, since I had already bought high chairs, but did not like the rectangle, glass table that made that set. There should have been a wrench with the tables, since I have yet to find the right size to tighten the nuts & bolts, so the tables are not as sturdy as they should be.They look durable, but the delivery missed my Labor Day party by a day, I used them yesterday for my book club party, otherwise they just stand there, gathering complements.I'm very pleased, though.

MSNBC Martin Bashir apologizes for saying pee and shit in Sarah Palin's mouth
Martin Bashir's 'apology' to Sarah Palin fell flat just like his ratings. After telling people to go pee and shit into Sarah Palin's mouth and eyes, there was an instant backlash against Bashir on social media. Today Martin Bashir issued a flat, insincere apology on the air, and still has a job at NBC News.
MSNBC Martin Bashir apologizes for saying pee and shit in Sarah Palin's mouth VIDEO |
Sorry eurotrash, but your apology falls flat, like your ratings. Most of the apology focused on Bashir himself, with very little mention of Palin. I love how Martin Bashir says he tries to strive elevate politcal discourse. Just want any of Bashir's previous shows, and you'll see how much 'he strives' to elevate the political discourse. Forget Bashir, take a look at any program on MSNBC, Ed Schultz, Chris Matthews, Rachel Maddow, Alec Baldwin or Lawence O'Donnell. They do nothing but spew vitriol against conservatives (including Palin) on a nightly basis.
MSNBC Martin Bashir wants Sarah Palin to be defecated and urinated on
What a lineup MSNBC has! Alec Baldwin, Chris Matthews, Chris Hayes, Rachel Maddow and Martin Bashir. Bashir like the rest of the progressive liberal Democrat media complex hates Sarah Palin. The eurotrash Martin Bashir took his hate to Sarah Palin so far that he called her "America's resident dunce." That's actually mild for what follows next. Bashir talked about his secret eurotrash fantasy of someone peeing in and taking a dump in Sarah Palin's eyes. Martin Bashir and Alec Baldwin proves yet again that NBC and MSNBC endorse misogynistic behavior and the progressive liberal war on women.

Sarah Palin talks ObamaCARE and Mark Begich on Hannity
Sarah Palin is on her media blitz to sell her new book Good Tiding, Great Joy – Protecting The Heart Of Christmas. She owned NBC leftist Matt Lauer earlier in the day for spinning with ObamaCARE talking points. She had a lot more of a friendly interview with Sean Hannity. Not only did Sarah Palin talk about her book, but she also bashed ObamaCARE and that extremist progressive liberal Democrat Senator in Alaska Mark Begich who voted for ObamaCARE. He is running for re-election next year and is running fast from his vote.

As expected, Sarah Palin got her share of nasty tweets and even death threats from progressive liberal Democrat extremists for daring speak out against Obama.

Sarah Palin destroys Matt Lauer and NBC's ObamaCARE narrative during Today inteview
I was wondering why Sarah Palin would bother going to the cesspool network NBC and the Today Show with Matt Lauer, after the way they have smeared here since 2008. But she has yet another book to sell, so now it makes sense. Lauer tried to spin the ObamaCARE disaster and Palin wasn't having any of that.

Syrian Electronic Army hacks Marine Corps Website
The Syrian Electronic Army hacked the official Marine Corps websites and left a message to those who support fighting along side of al-Qaeda in the Syrian Civil War:
Syrian Electronic Army hacks Marine Corps Website – Image credit: Live Leak |
"This is a message written by your brothers in the Syrian Army, who have been fighting al-Qaida for the last 3 years. We understand your patriotism and love for your country so please understand our love for ours. Obama is a traitor who wants to put your lives in danger to rescue al- Qaida insurgents.
Marines, please take a look at what your comrades think about Obama's alliance with al-Qaida against Syria. Your officer in charge probably has no qualms about sending you to die against soldiers just like you, fighting a vile common enemy. The Syrian army should be your ally not your enemy.
Refuse your orders and concentrate on the real reason every soldier joins their military, to defend their homeland. You're more than welcome to fight alongside our army rather than against it.
Your brothers, the Syrian army soldiers. A message delivered by the SEA"
While i agree that we should stay the hell out of Syria, we aren't your 'brothers.' We have no desire to fight 'alongside' with you either. This is your problem. As Sarah Palin brilliantly said, let Allah sort it out.

Watch Sarah Palin says she was banned from talking truth about Wright, Ayers, Obama in 2008
Sarah Palin dropped a bombshell On the Record with Greta Van Sustern tonight saying how the GOP elites forbid her from talking the truth about Obama, Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, Obama's 57 states comment, etc during the 2008 campaign. You can of course thank John McCain, Steve Schmidt, and Nicole Wallace among others for this brilliant tactic.

Sarah Palin considering a Senate run in Alaska against Begich
Sarah Palin on Hannity's radio show said that she would consider running for Senate in 2014. There still hasn't been any explanation as to why she was booted off Hannity's Fox News show a few weeks ago. Mark Begich is the corrupt Democrat Senator from Alaska who is up for re-election next year. While Sarah Palin told Hannity she is considering a Senate run, it didn't sound as if she was overly enthused with the idea.

Sarah Palin back on Fox News
I guess the backlash against Fox News and Roger Ailes got to them after they didn't re-sign Sarah Palin. All of a sudden, Palin will be rejoining Fox News as a contributor. I don't know what i'm going to enjoy more. Palin crushing leftists and owning Obama over the various scandals in his regime or the leftist meltdown after this announcement.
"The power of Fox News is unparalleled," the former Alaska governor said in a statement. "The role of Fox News in the important debates in our world is indispensable. I am pleased and proud to be rejoining Roger Ailes and the great people at Fox."
(PHOTOS: Palin's memorable pot shots)
Fox News chief Roger Ailes said he "had several conversations with Governor Palin in the past few weeks about her rejoining Fox News as a contributor."
"I have great confidence in her and am pleased that she will once again add her commentary to our programming," he said in the press release. "I hope she continues to speak her mind."
Obama donor Bill Maher calls Trig Palin a 'retard' Sarah Palin responds
Self proclaimed 'comedian' Bill Maher is back to joking about Sarah Palin's down syndrome son Trig Palin. That's was passes as comedy for a liberal. Bill Maher donated one million dollars to Obama's campaign was year, supports Bradley Manning, and doesn't support Edward Snowden. Pig Maher told his 'joke' in Las Vegas during one of his stand up routines. After the show, someone named Ron Futrell started heckling Maher over the 'retard' Palin joke and a reference to Halliburton. Ron Futrell was kicked out of the Pearl Theater in Las Vegas on June 8. Today, once news of Pig Maher's 'retard' jokes about Sarah Palin's special needs child spread, she came out swinging on Twitter:
I'm in your neck of the woods this weekend, little Bill. Care to meet so I can tell you how I really feel? shar.es/wLpR6

Netflix compares Sarah Palin and conservatives to Nazis
Netflix is already losing subscribers today. They dropped about 2,000 films from their streaming library and pissed off a lot of people. Now Netflix is comparing Sarah Palin and conservatives to Nazis. Again, Netflix, like other stupid leftists don't realize that Hitler and Nazis were/are the National Socialist Party. Netflix decided to bash Palin and conservatives by getting into the mocking hashtag #SarahPalinFilms. Netflix recommended the movie Iron Sky. That movie apparently is a comedy that features a Sarah Palin caricature as and draws a parallel between American conservatives and Nazis.

Yields on Polish government bonds declined and the zloty was little changed amid speculation the central bank will cut interest rates for a fifth time since November this week.
Policy makers will reduce the Poland's reference rate by a quarter point to 3.5 percent on March 6, according to 22 of 38 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. The remainder expect the central bank to keep borrowing costs on hold after cutting them by a total of 100 basis points over the last four months, as the economy slowed along with inflation pressure.
"The next factor that can move the market is Wednesday's interest-rate decision and the statement that follows the meeting," Pawel Bialczynski, bond trader at BRE Bank SA, said by phone from Warsaw. "Bond prices were little changed today."
The yield on five-year government bonds declined two basis points, or 0.02 percentage point, to 3.64 percent at 5:21 p.m. The zloty weakened less than 0.1 percent to 4.1388 against the euro, extending this year's decline to 1.4 percent, the seventh- biggest slump among 31 major currencies tracked by Bloomberg.

Lowering B2B customer acquisition costs by identifying business owners in your existing consumer customer base
In the 16th century there was a proverb related to medieval falconry. It went "A bird in the hand is worth more than two in the bush." The proverb evolved over hundreds of years into "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush." The bird in the hand, a Falcon, is worth much more than two loose birds in the bush. When you think about this proverb and how it relates to modern times, particularly in B2B marketing and customer acquisition, aren't your existing customers, patrons who are already doing business with you, worth more than "two prospects in the bush?"
Many companies often overlook their existing customers for new business opportunities, particularly those who may be using products from another part of their business. That's a mistake because according to a recent study* the probability of selling to an existing customer is 60-70% while the probability of selling a new prospect is only 5-20%. Are you overlooking lower hanging fruit in optimizing your existing base for business? According to a recent Bain and Company study, a 5% increase in customer retention can increase a company's profitability by 75%.
If you are a large airline for example, you may want to expand your existing relationship with those consumers who fly on your planes to vacation destinations by offering them an invitation to your business class frequent flyer program. If you knew that a cross-section of your customer base were business owners and entrepreneurs you might consider offering bonus miles as an introduction to commercial offers, further personalizing their experience with your brand to address their business needs. If you are a large wholesale club you might also like to establish relationships with restaurant owners or business caterers, people who do their grocery shopping on the weekend in your club, but own commercial businesses requiring produce, office supplies or general merchandise.
Today Experian Business Information Services unveiled Entity Linkage Service, a new business marketing service to help companies uncover qualified commercial accounts by identifying business owners and company decision makers within their current consumer customer base.
"In today's competitive business environment, many companies are exploring alternative ways to increase revenue while still keeping marketing costs at a minimum," said Laura DeSoto, senior vice president for Experian Business Information Services. "We've created Entity Linkage Service to help companies uncover new business contacts, while reducing customer acquisition costs. Given that these new contacts are also existing consumer relationships, companies will increase the probability of successful contact, improve customer lifetime value and more easily identify potential cross-sell and up-sell business opportunities."
How does Entity Linkage Service Work?
Through a highly accurate proprietary linkage system, Entity Linkage Service cross-references a company's consumer customer database with commercial and marketing repositories to provide as many as up to 10 active businesses associated with each consumer contact. With information on over 25 million actively transacting businesses, Experian's business database and architecture enables our clients to maximize the full potential of their current relationships, improve customer retention and segmentation, and optimize marketing spend.
In the below video, Product Marketing Director Adelain Sin describes how Entity Linkage Service can benefit companies with consumer and commercial offerings.

The one way traffic on Baker and Adams are the most dangerous, as most drivers only look in the direction of oncoming traffic. I've come very close to getting hit numerous times while crossing legally with the signal and it depresses me to know that should I die despite my best efforts, there won't be any more justice for me and my family than their appears to be for my friend Patricia.

"The experience with Politico made us realize we can't be critical of others for this if we are not living up to similar standard ourselves," he said. "We basically voided that clause with one tiny exception. Now there is no longer any window for factual errors. They are corrected—it doesn't matter when they're caught, how they're caught, who catches them. We'll see, maybe there will be a huge surge in corrections with Slate. And maybe not."
Now Slate is once again a site I'll cite as a good example of how to handle corrections; more important, the lesson for all news organizations is that you're never really finished with corrections. Policies and procedures need to be reexamined annually, or any time a new situation or issue arises. It's surprisingly easy to suddenly find yourself behind the curve.
"I think we felt like we have a policy, we have a corrections czar, we know what we're doing, and it's all pretty transparent and therefore we're in a different category," Plotz said. "But in fact were making these same after-the-fact changes [as Politico] that were invisible to readers, which were effectively corrections."
Perhaps the final lesson is that corrections hubris is a dangerous thing — and almost always ends in comeuppance.
Correction of the Week
An article on Wednesday about the quarrels among President Obama's national security advisers described in a new book by Bob Woodward referred incompletely to Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr.'s reported assessment of Richard C. Holbrooke, the president's special representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan. While Mr. Biden is indeed quoted as calling Mr. Holbrooke "the most egotistical bastard I've ever met," he also is quoted saying that Mr. Holbrooke "may be the right guy for the job." – The New York Times

Permission-based e-mail deliverability rates average 75 percent in the U.S.
Deliverability rates for permission-based e-mail average 75 percent in the U.S., though some ISPs do a better job routing messages to the inbox than others. J.L. Halsey's Lyris released its "EmailAdvisor ISP Deliverability Report Card for Q2 2007" with details on the ISPs with the top deliverability rates and other e-mail trends.
The study notes an increase in the use of Sender Policy Framework (SPF) authentication methods among ISPs. While the average deliverability rate is 75 percent, AIM.com routes 97 percent of permission-based e-mails to inboxes. RoadRunner SoCal delivers about 10 percentage points below AIM.com. Verizon, USA, Compuserve, IWon, AOL, Juno, Mac, and Netzero all exceed 80 percent delivery rates.
On the flip side, permission-based e-mails land in junk and bulk folders an average 16 percent of the time. XO Communications/Concentric delivers 56 percent of permission-based e-mail to junk and bulk folders. SBC Global and Bell South place about 30 percent of invited e-mails in junk and bulk folders, and Yahoo routs 26 percent. MSN Network, GMail, and Hotmail average 18 percent of consented e-mail to junk and bulk, while AOL relegates only 1.94 percent of marketer's e-mail to undesired folders. AOL's ability to identify permission-based e-mail could be due to its use of Goodmail's CertifiedEmail program, which qualifies legitimate messages.
Sender reputation influences whether messages are routed to the inbox or junk folder. One cause is when marketers or their ESPs (define) fail to update SPF (define) records when it changes a domain, ESP or other e-mail practices.
"You're having a broken record, not updating, and regularly checking records is where a lot of innocent marketers do have deliverability challenges," said Stefan Pollard, director of consulting services at EmailLabs, which is owned by J.L. Halsey. "If you have a broken record, you're actually raising your hand and saying this is not me sending the e-mail, don't deliver it."
E-mail senders are advised to follow spam's ever-evolving format. "The biggest challenge is that spam evolves and spam changes at an ever-increasing rate," Pollard said. "By the time you've identified spam, it's changed into something new."
A year ago image-based spam arose as the prevalent formula, which has since given way to the use of attachments of PDF, PowerPoint, and Excel files. "A lot of marketers still send very image-heavy e-mails, and a lot of marketers get caught up," said Pollard.
Between April and June the Lyris EmailAdvisor service monitored the full delivery trajectories of 43,558 production-level, permission-based e-mail marketing messages sent from 60 businesses and non-profit organizations to multiple accounts at 58 IDP domains in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia.
